Serena Williams won almost everything a tennis player could have dreamt of. The 40-year-old is a living legend and has proven it time and again. Her strict training regime to be quick and agile has given her brilliant results on the court. However, the former world number 1 once used her agility for some other purpose.

Back in 2015, a burglar tried to run away with her phone. What happened next was a nightmare for the thief

Serena catches the mobile thief

Back in 2015, Serena Williams narrated an astonishing story. A man tried to run away with her phone. However, it was not very hard for the queen of the court to run behind and catch him. Here’s what Serena told about the incident.

“This common petty thief grabbed my phone and swiftly left. I looked at the chair, then shouted ‘Omg that dude took my phone!!’ Not thinking I reacted (hence the superwoman photo) I jumped up, weaved my way in and out of the cozy restaurant (leaping over a chair or two), and chased him down. He began to run, but I was too fast. (Those sprints came in handy) I was upon him in a flash! ” She said.

Even though she caught him red-handed, the kind-hearted legend still gave the man a chance to explain himself.

 “I kindly asked him if he “accidentally” took the wrong phone. He stumbled on his words, probably not expecting this to happen. While he was thinking of the right thing to say and eventually he said ‘Gosh, you know what I did! It was so confusing in there. I must have grabbed the wrong phone,” she added.

Serena Williams starts practicing

After a disappointing comeback run in the Wimbledon Championships 2022, Serena is back preparing for the upcoming American Hard court season. With eyes firmly set on the US Open, Serena has registered to participate in two tournaments prior to the last Grand Slam of the year.

She will play in the Canadian Open followed by Cincinnati Masters. Recently, the 40-year-old finally stepped back into the court. The former world number 1 was seen practicing with her sister Venus Williams in the Citi Open.
